Price of Prejudice

Bigots who voted Trump to satisfy their Christian white supremacy urges are now witnessing the culmination of the hate campaign against Obamacare. For the bigots on Medicaid, this is the test of their loyalty to Trump. Will they happily surrender the health insurance their families depend on, or will they put self-interest first?

After announcing his plan to abandon the disabled, the working poor, and the elderly, Trump’s approval rating dropped to 37%. Even a Republican member of Congress can read those tea leaves.

The GOP split with Trump over cutting public health infrastructure goes to a vote in Congress today. This is a test of Paul Ryan’s ability to push through brutal austerity laws under the model of his fascist mentor in Chile, Jose Pinera. Ironically, the deciding factor won’t be public protests by liberals, but rather the reaction of the radical right.
